Since these engines are not certified for aircraft use, I assume it's quite an old design.

So you are in the Middle, not Far east as we were all thinking.

Nice out there innit! I did five years in Riyadh.

Time for a re-post i think Reg.

Twenties, LM

BTW my picture keeps flipping in both browsers I have, in is probably a Photobucket issue, apparently thy have mirrored the database between my saving it first nose one direction and then flipped, both with the same file name. The bucket may poll both mirror databases in turns or something. Otherwise I don't understand and need not to. Next time if I flip, I use different file names and delete the one i don't use. Buttrick you may comment if my theory makes sense.

No point in replying to you Martin.

Reg has got it - you have control mate.

PS - I thought an easy one was in order after this morning.

Sorry fellows: Temporarily lost the ID of this challenge, will return with it later, but now Open House.

RR the original hidden clue was directed to LM and referred to time when you were still vacationing.

My apologies again.

Reg
